aginative spirits of the century first saw the
light there can redeem is hopeless prose. 1t
is wooden house standing plump upon the
pavement. It opens all its narrow doors and
windows to any inquisitive sight. 1t reveals
the housewife moving too and fro, and
blabs without restraint of what the noon
dinner was or will be. In Hawthorne's time
it was used as one tenement; at present two
families, evidently of the race of Maules, fill
it to overfowing, bargaining with street
hucksters from upper and lower windows,
gossiping with neighbors and scolding chill
dren. The street has never been aristocratic
and is not now dignity in decay, but to-day
precisely what it always has been, a street of
humble houses, mostly two stories and a
half high, hiparoofed, fat upon the ground,
the narrow front door entered by single
step from the street. Such is Hawthorne's
birthplace, such the most of its neighbore,
and the whole street has a characterless ex-
preston beyond that of honest mediocrity
and humble toll that is in striking contrast
with the picturesque and subtle genius that
came to life there. There is no garden
space around the house. Neighboring
houses crowd it close. Not single tree or
shrub throws vagrant grace over its plain
worksday unloYeliness.
Perhaps it was this very barrenness of
natures influence upon his childhood and
youth that made Hawthorne's work singu-
larly void of the imaginative influences of
exterior nature. With all his wide spiritu-
al vision along great vistas of years, and
his poetic sight into the grandeur, the pit
fulness, the beauty, the squalor of the hu-
man nature drifting through those xistas,
itual dignity, pathos and majesty in the
exterior world

Striking Instance of a Dogs Attach
ment to Its Dead Mistress.
[Fron the Cartersville (Ga) Courant.7
Several years ago a lady in this place gave
to one of Mr.. J. t. Ovens children poodle
dog, which proved to be very affectionate
creature, and from its first entering the
house it became very much attached to Mrs
Owen. 1t was always playful and delighted
in nothing SO much as being noticed, receivs
ing the caresses of visitors as gladly as a
child, and gifted with reason.
During the protracted illness of Mrs. Owen
the little pet would at meal time go to its
mistress to be fed, where it received it's
meals regularly from her hand. During the
last few days of Mrs. Ovens illness, when
she was unable to give it the accustomed
attention, it was noticed even by those
who had been visiting the house that "Besr
sic" had lost her spirit of playfulness and
looked detected. When her mistress died,
on the 18th of April last, Bessie took a
position under her bed, and when her body
was placed in the coffin she then changed
her position and remained under the coffin
until the remains were taken from the
house. For days afterwards she clung to
that room, lying in chair beside the bed,
and although she had never been known to get
on bed before, she would, after the death
of her mistress, jump on the bed and
scratch down the cover, evidently hunting

of the time to eat for days at time, eat
ing so little that it seemed she must neces-
sarily die from starvation. Occasionally
she made an effort to rally, but would in
a short time relapse into the same state of
gloom and dependency.
For the last few weeks she had almost
entirely abstained from food, until she be-
came a living skeleton. On last Sunday
morning when the family arose and opened
the door little Bessie crawled from her
comfortable bed on the back piazza and
softly crept into the room of her young
mistress, and stretched herself upon the
floor under the foot of the bed and died
without struggle. Her action from the day
she lost her mistress showed plainly that she
was grieving deeply, and called forth much
tender sympathy. and added grief to those
who already had their load to bear, but who
had reason to support them.

FOR PURER ELECTTONS-


Mr.. Allen Thorndike Rice has had some
experience with practical politics in which
Captain Mike Cregan was concerned, and he
is therefore prepared to see something done
to promote the purity of the ballot box. He
has prepared bill which he thinks will do
the work, and though it does not contain
much that is new. his plan is well worth at
tention
Mr.. Rice believes that the present power
of organized knavery in our city politics
comes chiefly from two sources-frst, our
present methods of nomination; and second,
our present methods of balloting and the at
tendant personal expenses of a canvass. To
get better nominations Mr.. Rice would prac-
tically abolish the whole system of primaries
and nominating conventions by providing
that the State shall furnish at each election
printed ballots on which, at the request of a
given number of voters, any mans name
shall appear as candidate. Perhaps this
would not work well in this country, but the
method proposed for reforming the immedi-
ate surroundings of the ballot box undoubt-
edly would. Its essential points are that
the names of all candidates be printed at the
public expense on ticket to be furnished
the voter when he comes to the polls; that
the voters retire one at time to a private
compartment where they shall indicate en-
the ticket the candidate of their choice, and
that by detailed legal safeguards the manner
in which they have voted shall be kept en-
tirely secret. With such law as that in
force, supplemented by another stringently
limiting the expenses which candidate can
legally incur, great reform will have been
accomplished. The secrecy of the ballot will
largely if not entirely do away with bribery,
because no man or machine will care to buy
voters when they can have no guarantee that
the purchased vote will be delivered. The
State-printed ticket will relieve candidates
from heavy burden and place the poor man
on an equality with the rich in running for
office. Besides, it will make it impossible to
raise large corruption fund through the fa-
miliar device of an assessment for printing
expenses.
In England not little progress has been
made toward pure elections. Something
will probably be done in the same direction
in several of the States of this country before
